The plays, monodrama and libretto represent subject-matter from woman-centred history, revolutionary politics, trans-racial adoption and African-diasporic familial heritage, as contoured by the writers' boundary crossing profiles as poets, playwrights, performers and directors. The accompanying critical introductions are provided by people committed to recognising the aesthetic and political significance of the work, and its necessary inclusion in British theatre and literary history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAustralian born Deirdre Osborne is a Senior Lecturer at Goldsmiths, University of London.
